Documentaries....
'Explore. Dream. Discover. Many years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw away the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the trade winds in your sails. '
The above passage is pretty interesting. It actually came from a poster that I received from a friend a year ago, as my birthday present, which, ever since then, had been stickered to the wall, right in front of my desk. Every time, whenever I begin to succumb to the mundanity of tasks, these words will then remind me, life is about taking risks. I know not what's others perspective of how life should be lived, and I should say I do not very much care, though.
Of late, it's always been at the top of my priorities that every tasking, whether its something new or old, when in the midst of commiting which, should be able to bring about an adrenaline rush or butterflies in the abdomen region. I've a friend of mine, whom laughed off my thinking as an accelerated process to cardiac arrest. (ha...)
Today, had a tiny episode of trying to write with left hand, (don't neglect the fact that I'm a right-hander..) I realised that my left hand could not even hold the pen firmly, let alone able to write like I do not have Parkinson's Disease, Finally, the conclusion was, I'm not a person born with much creativity, and this fact was further strengthened by the names I gave to my hamsters last time. (小圆:as he always runs in circle, I had to think that he's abit mentally unsound, gila... I'd say. 大大:as she is the bigger one.) I reckon, that's true. Creativity just doesn't flow in me, or appear to manifest anyway, anywhere in my life.
p.s. if at the end of this entry, you still do not have the faintest idea of what I'm attempting to say, quit trying. I did, awhile ago. *random happenings recorded in a mindless ranting.*

自由
噢!早前与一些友人讨论着‘自由’,这两个字。
让我深省,于是乎,就想上网写一些自个儿的观点,然,由于自己的记忆力着实有待加强,为了不想故念重提,点阅了我以往所刊登的一些文章,赫然发现,过往的自己为何如此的悲观,总是释放着负能量。
有点无病呻吟。
如今回首,竟觉得有些滑稽,过去的一些愤怒的表现,竟让自己感觉一头的雾水,不知这些强烈的怒气之后又是如何烟消云散的,抑或是为了写作上的效果,特意夸大其词。
我想,倘若是后者;也请各位读者大人们见谅。因为,须知写部落格的人们,心中或许都会有点小小的表演欲,而,blog,就是属于自己小小的舞台或表演空间。Only in this small virtual space, will one not be subjected to scrutiny, and even if one does face such obnoxious intrusion on this private little space, he/she can instaneously brush it off with nothing more than a shrug.
*回魂啦*
什么是自由?
相信每一个人都有各自的见解,然,却总精简得每一个人对自由的看法都不尽相同。都说:“就做自己爱做的事啊!”
依鄙人小小的看法,自由是珍贵的。何以如此呢?要在这现今社会存活,有几位幸运儿真正尝到自由的味道?人生,委实有太多太多的身不由己。更多的人,被这社会的规范与标准欺凌着、打压着,以致就连喘口气都会感觉力不从心?到最后,终于选择屈服在一个传统的社会体制里,做着连自己都快忘记自己的存在的‘平凡人’。我相信,一个人,最终极的悲哀,并非在于失去自由,毕竟,极大多数的失去,都是有时间性的。而,最大的悲哀,是放弃争取自身的自由,选择随波逐流。
说与此,请勿将自由与放荡混为一谈,我所引述的自由,并非以随意践踏道德与法律规范为本意。
而我,而今,重获了一个建立人生一个新的里程碑的自由。你呢?勇于争取吗?

visceral
I came across this passage that really moved me when i was surfing through the internet, the subject of my curiosity being, The World Islands of the UAE, situated in the Arabian Gulf. And if you were ever wondering, no, I do not think of owning an island over this far-away-other-side-of -the world.
All these inquiries begins with a random download of an episode of Nat Geog. video about the World Islands by Dubai. As I watched on the video, I am truly intrigued by the scale of the project, about the determination and tenacity of the Sheikh to complete the project despite ridicuing voices citing the impossibilities of the whole plan.
'The Thrill is back. And this time, it's here to stay. Your pulse races. Your heart pounds. A once-in-a-lifetime experience had begun. A whirlwind of sights, sounds and emotions that leave you weak in the knees and casts life in a brilliant new light. You may have discovered the perfect soulmates. Sun, sand, sea. Yours.'
I think its quite impactful, well, at least it meant so to me. This is a test of how we, human beings, with the sheer determination and belief, given the freedom of choices in the world, can achieve something that is indeed astromonical.
'tis the beauty of freedom.

改变。
Change is the only constant.
以上的这句话我们都已听过无数次了,但,有几个人真正去深思固中的道理?
说的人,究竟对于这句话有如何的感想?是感慨,抑或兴味?
想的,又是哪个层次?是外在和外来的变迁,还是自身的改过自新/变本加厉?
我,想很多,向来都是。
‘改变’这两个字眼, 对于保守派的人,可是个禁忌?
因为我也听过这句话;‘以不变应万变’。
倘若是以前的自己,肯定是害怕改变的,因,在预见不到的未来里,总有太多的浑水,太多的未知数,而,缺乏自信的自己心中存有太多的顾虑、不安的情绪。如今,想想,是否就是这些因素导致自己的脚步停滞不前?对照从前与现今的自己,似乎隐约见到懦弱的自己,怀着一堆阴沉、灰暗的思想。
但是,一旦思维开阔了,人会变,变得积极,进取。这,何尝不是个正面的改变?然,如此的变化应如何去推崇?我想,需要真正的敞开自己的胸怀,迎接未知的变数,因为,畏惧,就好似从前的女性所要承受的裹脚布的重量般,使人的脚步踌躇不前。鉴于此,畏惧的代价值得吗?
然,这并不是简简单单的一句话:“我要改变!” 就能做得到的,真正需要的,是一颗决心,一颗有勇气踏出自己舒适的框框的无比坚定的决心。因为,我们都要意识到,有时候,改变可以是痛苦的。然,当历经万难所换来得成功,一定是甜美的。所谓,天将降大任于厮人也,必先劳其筋骨,苦其心志,饿其体肤。
以上是鄙人小小的见解,共勉之。
